Schoolkids Records Opens Preorders for FONTAINES D.C., ALICE IN CHAINS, More
THE CONNELLS' debut album DARKER DAYS returns to physical formats on magenta vinyl with rare bonus tracks.
Schoolkids Records has opened preorders for a batch of new releases, including titles from FONTAINES DC, ALICE IN CHAINS, Waylon Jennings, Gurriers, Sylvan Esso, THE BEATLES, THE CONNELLS, Cor de Lux, Billy Strings and more.
For the Sylvan Esso release, the label is offering a special hand-stamped retail-only CD decorated by Sylvan Esso themselves, available on a first come, first served basis exclusively to shops for fans who pre-order the new album Ow ∞ from their shop.
Among the new releases, THE CONNELLS' debut album Darker Days is returning to print in an Indie Exclusive pink pressing on magenta vinyl, featuring bonus tracks. The label describes it as the first time the album has been available on physical formats since 1987, and says the release marks the first time the tracklist combines both the original U.S. (Black Park) and U.K. (Demon Records) releases into one definitive album. The reissue includes four bonus tracks described as sought-after and never previously released digitally, along with what the label calls 'definitive liner notes,' featuring an extensive essay on the history of the band and the album.
